@an_usa_bar Didn't find it that way in the app. Each song was different and it was just non-stop.

No Weeklies this weekend either since I'm traveling from Coimbatore, back to Bengaluru. But, unlike other drives, this time, I stuck to Deva's songs, instead of Raja's! Used an app called Tamil Vanoli which had streams of Deva (and all composers + FM stations as well).

@hti_nt Doesn't he say, "அப்படி ஒரு பாதிப்பை ஏற்படுத்தக்கூடிய ஒரு படத்தை தான் **இவரு** பெரிசா ஆராய்ஞ்சு எழுதிட்டாரு... அப்படின்னு பாத்தா" where இவரு has only one context (the writer) because he has not spoken about the director Rahul Sankrityan (different from Sankrityayan) at all?

Did Blue Sattai Maaran really think that writer Rahul Sankrityayan, who wrote Volga se Ganga (that Maaran refers to in great detail), and who died in 1963, is the director of the new Telugu film 'Ranabaali'? 😳

Lovely write-up on Deva, by Deepan Ramachandran, founder of the ad agency Mind Your Language (MYL).

Not enough new songs worthy of a playlist... pushing Weeklies to next weekend.

[Karthik S @milliblog]

Rest in peace, Deva! You had a solid run, even amidst giants - that's a terrific achievement.

@slickhomes Probably 'cos I hardly post my views on this platform, and merely use it a pointer towards my blog where I do post everything :) I presume a lot more people would be directly visiting my blog on weekends instead of waiting for me to tweet on weekends.

@siraj82 Nothing at all :) Ala Bolelo is the only one, which I wrote about earlier.

[Karthik S @milliblog]

@daskugelblitz Had already added 'Yezhezhu Malai' and Marubadi Nee' way back in 2024 :) https://t.co/8R4niNPFaD

Nothing else worked across both sides A and B.

@ArjhunSrinivas Oh yes! https://t.co/emDub5JjXb

Quite a surprise - last 2 weeks haven't given me enough new good songs to make a decent playlist! I have just about 7 (or may be 8, if I'm being very generous) songs from new releases. So, pushing Weeklies to next (long) weekend.

[Karthik S @milliblog]

Way too much work last week, and the coming week! Haven't found the time to listen to new releases. Pushing Weeklies to next weekend.

Also, a related editorial in TOI (which too overlooks any and every Southern artist, but at least here I understand the context specifically came from the Malaysian PM singing a Hindi song).

[Karthik S @milliblog]

Interesting, but completely overlooks any Southern artist! S.Janaki, P.Jayachandran, Uma Ramanan, Vani Jayaram... all passed away in the last 2-3 years. Data around their songs before-after their passing away could have added more value to this story/hypothesis.
